About Hepatitis A, B & C Test Panel in Bakersfield
Hepatitis A, B, and C are separate viruses that share a target organ but differ in how they spread and how they behave over time.
Hepatitis A is typically transmitted through contaminated food or water and causes an acute illness that resolves without chronic infection. The body produces antibodies against the virus, and testing can distinguish a recent infection from past exposure or vaccination.
Hepatitis B spreads through contact with infected blood or body fluids and can be either short-lived or long-lasting. The panel evaluates a combination of antigens and antibodies, which together indicate whether someone is currently infected, has cleared the virus, or has been vaccinated.
Hepatitis C is transmitted primarily through blood exposure and often produces few or no symptoms in its early stages. Antibody testing identifies exposure, while additional markers may be used to confirm an active infection. Because each virus requires different markers, the panel tests for the corresponding antibodies and antigens together.
